[QUOTE="flashhole, post: 1691014, member: 21375"] Yes, in NY we had a chicken coop. Foxes were always a problem. My youngest daughter treated the chickens like pets and gave them all names. When the fox killed 18 of 30 chickens she declared war. Turned out we had a mating pair of foxes and they were successful with their brood. My daughter would sit on top of the barn with the Fireball. She got several foxes and tried to claim the gun as hers since she killed all the critters. I was not ready to give the gun up ... so .... no. She shot in 4-H all through her youth, 10 -18, and I bought her a CZ 455 and scoped it with a Weaver Rimfire scope. She kicked butt and for 3 consecutive years she outshot the instructor. It was very competitive and there was a waiting list for those who wanted in the program. John King ran a great program and won the 4H shooting sports Man of the Year. He taught lots of kids safety and shooting fundamentals. I was his assistant. My daughter had the highest average every year finishing 276 out of 300. These were kids shooting offhand at a pea sized bullseye at 50 feet. Try it and you will immediately understand how good the score is. I'm sure I will will the Fireball to my youngest daughter.
